I managed to get mine upgraded too.
Its the best decision for my system too.
it works perfectly.
I posted a pic of mine.
There is no visible deflection. And I 3d printed a mount for the new spindle I bought.
Alright, looks like this upgrade is going on my to-do list for this month.
Oh man, I was on cnc4newbie’s checkout page last night but didn’t hit the trigger. I totally should have— looks like he’s out of stock now
its a 800 watt one.
Bought the VFD (110V) version that is listed on that same page.

Perfect!
It works just like a milled one.
What would you charge to print one up?
He got back to me pretty promptly when I emailed yesterday about placing an order and getting custom hole spacing.
Maybe this is a give, but I would throw some blue loctite on the screws that attach the router holder to the z-axis. I don’t know if I have excessive vibration, I didn’t tighten them enough, or what but had 3 out 4 coming out yesterday. One day i guess I will loctite everything.
Mine is arriving today a few days early!
Delivered! Hopefully, have time this weekend to install.
Mine just shipped too
Mine shipped yesterday ! It’s gonna be a linear z party !
My 8" with fast screw shipped and should be here this Wednesday! Got Charlies 2" lifts and have cut additional Y rail supports out of aluminum. Tempted to get the Hitachi at the same time, need to figure out a mount for it though.
Mine just went from being at customs clearance in Cincinnati at 4:30 AM to being out for delivery in New York at 11 AM! Not sure how that’s possible but I’m pumped
Oh man, over 12 days? I would go insane.
Come on Phil ! Let’s see that new z axis!!!
